Regenerative braking is limited in the amount of braking force that it can apply to the vehicle so during harder stops, the friction brakes are more heavily utilized. If the vehicle is repeatedly applying moderate to heavy braking force, the rotors will heat up and require ventilation.

I test materials for high purity process orbital welding and we don’t even get to those tolerances. Every time he pretends to be an engineer or manufacturing genius I have to laugh. If this is indicative of their work and QC, they’re going to be in a world of hurt.
Musk? Out of touch? Never.
To put this into perspective, a regular piece of printer paper is about 90 microns thick, so Elon expects a whole damn car to be accurate to within roughly 1/10 the thickness of a piece of paper. That’s not possible on a consumer vehicle. Hell, even that recent $30,000,000 Rolls Royce wouldn’t have tolerances that…
Elon is a fucking moron.
Based on when they first started making the S & X, maybe he meant sub 10mm
Judging from the pics so far - they probably should start with +/- 9mm tolerance.
“All parts for this vehicle, whether internal or from suppliers, need to be designed and built to sub 10 micron accuracy.”
No, I had cupcake that glows in the dark. It seemed like a solid bet.
Every successful dictator knows that their underlings can’t be too competent, or eventually they’ll try to seize power for themselves. I’m kind of surprised Prigozhin lived long enough to attempt a coup when he was openly attacking the military for their poor performance in combat. When someone starts saying their…
Dammit! I had “hotel room balcony fall” in the pool. Too obvious I guess.
This is actually good news because his group was actually more effective than the Russian military. So now Putin killed one of the few people who seemed to know what they were doing. So good. Fuck him and Fuck Putin.
Who else here thinks that Midthunder is such a badass last name?
It wasn’t both. Zuck was totally ready. He does BJJ and has been in and won tournaments. He was totally ready. He just finally got tired of Musk’s excuses.
Sigh, Elon made the first mistake, you don’t talk about billionaire fight club.
How are we living in a universe where Mark Zuckerberg is the rational adult?
It really seems that Musk’s basic problem is that he can’t find any MMA coaches who agree with him that Musk would win easily without really trying.
I know a face hugger when I see one!
Not gonna lie, I’m team Orca...
